A question for linux-8086 list readers:

With such OS vendors as QNX looking to become at least
partially open, do you think there is a space in the
embedded systems marketplace for an open source 16-bit
processor Linux variant (like ELKS) with TCP/IP protocol
stack?  Could you ever imagine that it could grab a
significant share of this marketplace?

After all, there exists MINIX and open-source 11Kb kernels
for microcontrollers with TCP/IP stack and all...

Look forward to hearing some comments.
